Chapter 75

Sighing softly, Yuxuanji lowered her delicate fingers hidden in her sleeves. The spell she had already cast was thus dispelled. She shook her head and said, "Your Highness, this is a minor matter. I can handle it myself. There’s no need for you to take action. Look, the wounds have opened again."

"Oh, is that so?" Xiaosheng lowered his head to scan his body and saw that indeed there were several wounds. The bleeding had stopped and scabs had formed due to the application of Tianxing Dihuang powder. However, because of the powerful slap he had just delivered, the wounds had reopened, slowly oozing blood.

However, Xiaosheng was not too concerned about these minor injuries. He smiled casually and said, "It’s just a small matter. That old man dared to use such despicable and low-down tactics against you, my military advisor. If I didn’t step in, how could I still call myself a man? There’s no need to say more about this. But, Military Advisor, what should we do now?"

Yuxuanji said calmly, "The Ye family’s ancestors once had a connection with my master. Out of respect for that past relationship, I intended to let them off with just a lesson. But now, it seems that’s not necessary. The Ye family has degenerated to such a degree that their continued existence is nothing but a curse. So, let’s just finish them off cleanly."

"Bitch! Whore! How dare you have such evil thoughts?" Ye Baiyi, the old man who had lost most of his teeth from the Fourteenth Prince’s slap, suddenly heard Yuxuanji’s words and could not help but be both shocked and angry.

He leaped up with all his strength, retreating backward, his eyes emitting a vicious glare as he gritted his teeth and cursed, "Whore, and that brat, you can’t be so arrogant! Just wait for me! I’ll go back to the Ye family and get the elders to deal with you! When that time comes, you two scoundrels will have your bones shattered and be reduced to maggots in a cesspit. Then, all the cats, dogs, donkeys, horses, cows, and sheep of the Ye family, as long as they have the ability, will take turns with you, ravaging every inch of your bodies until you are completely destroyed and worn out! Ha, you will live a life worse than death, forever in a hell of brutal rape, serving as a means for the beasts to vent their anger. Just wait, wait, ha, hahaha~"

Amidst his shrill and mad laughter, Ye Baiyi suddenly leaped up, landing on the back of his pet giant eagle. At the same time, he let out a long whistle to command the eagle to take off and escape. Ye Liangchen, standing nearby, panicked. He flailed his arms wildly, his voice trembling with fear as he cried, "Great Uncle, you can’t leave me behind and escape alone! No, no!"

Before he could finish speaking, he mustered all his strength and lunged forward, grabbing Ye Baiyi’s legs with perfect aim. Suddenly burdened with this extra weight, Ye Baiyi lost his balance. With a “thud,” he and Ye Liangchen tumbled to the ground, their faces buried in the dirt. The giant eagle, startled, squawked and flapped its wings, rising into the air. It seemed ready to abandon its master and escape on its own.

"Hmph, the Ye family’s people are despicable, and even their animals are useless. How dare they rely on their ancestors’ names to act arrogantly and bully others? If the ancestors of the Ye family knew they had such unworthy descendants, they would probably be so angry that they would rise from their graves to strangle them."

Yuxuanji sighed and shook her head. She suddenly raised her delicate fingers and drew a line in the air. A fine thread of light followed the movement of her fingers, extending and forming an ancient and mysterious talisman.

The female military advisor said calmly, "The Netherworld Array is activated, the spell commands the spirits—bind!" As she spoke, her hand flipped, turning into a palm, and she gently pressed downward. The talisman floating in the air immediately landed and transformed into a massive array, covering a three-zhang radius, enveloping Ye Baiyi, Ye Liangchen, and the giant eagle.

Immediately, ghostly wails filled the air, piercing and deafening. From the ground, countless faint shadows emerged, each with eyes, ears, and a mouth. Upon closer inspection, these shadows’ features were twisted in intense pain, despair, and hatred, causing anyone who saw them to feel a chill, as if they had fallen into a snow cellar.
